Rayna and Juliette argue bitterly about their duet. They trade increasingly hurtful barbs as the menfolk smirk in that “Isn’t it funny when women hate each other” way until Rayna does something pretty fucking unforgiveable. She says that everybody at that table and in that room know Juliette isn’t good enough to play on that stage alongside Rayna. OUCH! That was stone-cold, Lamar–style cuntiness. Juliette tucks her tail between her legs and limps away. Deacon blows up! Yay! He’s fighting for his friend. I lurve him all over again.
Rayna shows up at Juliette’s and they write a song. It actually didn’t play out as trite as that sentence might lead you to think.
Have I ever mentioned how much I loathe Gwen Stefani? If I have to watch her stupid commercial one more time, I might shoot my tv. Actually, that would never happen. I don’t own a gun. I’m a Canadian so we do all our hunting by crossbow or hand. I will say one positive thing about her – she has aged remarkably well.
Hmmm….the big performance. I’m not sure how exactly I feel except that Juliette’s lipstick was way, way too red.
Ooooh! The hour flew by. What a really, really great episode. I’ll be chugging away at the full recap right after I finish my Liz and Dick cappie. See you soon!

This episode made up for the lack of one last week. I totally thought that Rayna was going to accept the vodka when she asked if Juliette had any orange juice – lol! I mostly think this episode was incredible because I didn’t have to watch any commercials when I watched it. With the last episode, I tried streaming it at work with a few of my DISH coworkers and it was impossible to get through because of all the commercials we couldn’t even fast forward or skip through. From here on, I’m watching Nashville as a part of my DISH Hopper’s Primetime Anytime recordings so that I can Auto Hop the commercials and save my self the agony of sitting through them each episode.
^lol, you work for Dish. Make that money, honey boo boo.
And about Twitter, careers have always been made or broken by what twats on Twitter think, because twats on twitter are fans. And an artist is nothing without fans. They are the ones buying the records (or downloading on itunes nowadays), going to tours, buying the fragrances and clothing lines and whatever else have you. Before twitter, I feel like artists would only reallyyyy find out that nobody liked them until it was too late to do anything about it. Like after they dropped a new album (and it failed horribly) or after they booked a worldwide tour (and nobody bought tickets).
But with Twitter, fans have the chance to speak directly and instantly to the artist. Or to the artist’s publicity team.
It’s a boon honestly…it makes it alot easier for artists to keep track of their public image because it is a good source for data, and it lets them do damage control mad fast because they can gauge reactions right away. Which is what we’re seeing now with Juliette.
Now, I still hate Twitter and I think it’s stupid as fuck, but stars do need to pay close attention to Twitter and act according to what they see there.
Maybe Rayna should get a twitter.
This was a great episode. This show is great because as my husband says all the characters are unlikable. They all have flaws and it makes them feel more real. I personally find Hailey way hotter than Scarlet but my husband disagrees. If I was Gunner I would stick with Hailey. She has less baggage and is hotter.
The Tebow character is annoying. It is interesting to see how even famous people have bosses and have to tow the line. I always figured famous people could do whatever they wanted to a point. Now I know plenty of famous people who don’t give a crap what fans say like Angelina Jolie and just keep trying to illegally adopt babies and steal husbands and get away with it. She didn’t care when everyone was telling her to cut the crap. People still kiss her ass.
